1) Make progress in personal family history (learn
I took a class with my sister-in-law, Angi, where we learned many of the basics of Photoshop. I also was able to hire my sister, Amber, to give me some one-on-one training and get personal feedback on projects and challenges as I learned. I fell way behind on the month coverage, but managed to catch up to September by tonight (see plethora of pictures below). I also realized that only on spread per month wasn't enough, so enjoy the better coverage. [If you click on the picture, it will enlarge enough to read and see all the pictures.] I tried to keep our blog updated and I think I averaged about every week or two. It was a good exercise for me to use it as a tool to share stories and pictures with family and friends. I plan to continue.
2) Train for the Ragnar Wasatch Back Relay 2008 (consistent training schedule, bed by 10pm, up by 6am to exercise).
I completed the Provo River 10-miler in preparation for the WBR in June. I loved the experience of doing the relay in a van full of other first-timers. We all got along really well and survived with flying colors. Our team ranked 65th out of 545 teams, so we were pleased. I felt so great afterward, I wanted to work towards a marathon. That will be part of this year's goals, since the night after the relay, I found out I was pregnant and quit the workouts. I had mild success with the go to bed and wake up times. I hope to do better with that as well this year... after Matt sleep trains?
3) Keep up a realistic yet vigorous schedule (responsibilities chart, meal-planning chart, activity schedule, etc.)
This will also be something I continue to work on this year. :)
In short, I'm pleased with progress made this year and I'm looking forward to another year of growing and improving. Stay tuned for 2009 goals!
